Does anyone have any experience using the License plate mount from Lakeview products. It looks like it my be the answer to my SUV mounting problem but from the ads and the "Short take" in QST it is difficult to really get a feel for how substantial it is and how it might work out in the real world. I appreciate any comments/feedback. ThxsJoe Carter, w9jc

I purchased the license plate mount in May 2000 and use it on my Buick Park Avenue. I use the Yaesu ATAS 100 antenna and it works great. It is very sturdy! Be sure to ground it good; I took a one inch braid directly to the car chassis.

What antenna are you using on the mount? I assume they should work OK with a Hamstick since Lakeview sells the Hamstick. I'm just wondering how well it will work with a Hustler antenna and 20M resonator. Does the antenna sway side to side much as you are driving?
